Reported Qatar and Pakistan compromise plan for US-Iran talks, unconfirmed

  • Qatar and Pakistan have presented a compromise proposal said to meet both US and Iranian demands, citing sources close to the mediation, per newswires ( / 12:40 GMT). Unconfirmed: no official US or Iranian comment yet
  • Pakistan's army chief is reported to be carrying the plan with US and Iranian approval; it seeks to prevent escalation and resume talks, with a partial response to Iran's frozen funds demand

FO view: Until either government confirms the plan, this is a reported proposal, not de-escalation.

Not investment advice.
